Thank goodness for Felsi, seriously. After everything that's happened I was so scared that Guel was going to end up dying to stupid sibling lack of communication drama but our pineapplehead did so well, she's come a long way since "Guel groupie #1" in the early days. Apparently did such a good job that the HG Dilanza sold out right afterward and everything.

I’m still a bit confused as to why all of the Gundams stopped attacking before Miorine’s team infiltrated and disabled Quiet Zero. Speaking of which, did Miorine really memorize that whole base pair sequence? I still have a lot of questions about Notrette’s involvement in Quiet Zero’s development.
Also, didn’t expect the giant laser out of nowhere and Ericht sacrificing herself to stop it.
Schwarzette's bits are pretty cool. Funnels/bits are always cool though.
"I don't want Mom... to become some evil magician!" Thanks for pointing out the Tempest parallels, Suletta.
I guess it wouldn't be Gundam without a big freaking laser. Now with organ soundtrack (reminds me of Yamato 2202's OST). And it's always fun when Gundam does evil Haros.
Whenever I see Quod Erat Demonstrandum, I always think of Candide,.. namely the Bernstein operetta adaptation. I've studied math in the past so I dunno why Candide pops into my head first, I guess squares are more common than the actual letters. QED kinda feels a little on-the-nose to be at the concluding steps of ideologically-based (well, ideology and revenge-based) plot but eh.
Posted this elsewhere, but
Gotta say, the reveal and the use of a brand new super weapon in the same episode is a little unsatisfying, but overall great episode. Was not expecting everyone to make it out (pending Eri) but glad they have.
Does anyone know who Eri is referring to when she mentions about someone interfering? It seems like whoever it is caused the interference with quite zero right before the infiltration team got in. Also surprise giant space laser!
Each week I come in prepared, expecting the worst and then somehow this damn show still finds some way of pulling the rug out from under me!
I don't know how but I was somehow feeling really conflicted about Prospera vs Mio, I didn't want either of them to lose, even though Prospera is supposed to be the antagonist she's the only one who seems to be doing what's required to bring about real change in the fucked up world of this show. I just don't see how anything changes with current structure still intact and without Prospera nothing is changing, I fully expect the writers to prove me wrong ofc.
I think it's safe to assume at this point that another season is coming, no way they can resolve all this in this season.
I mean, at the end of the credits it said that the next episode would be "The Final Episode". I was thinking up to that point that the last episode of this season would be setup for the next, but I doubt that they'd literally say that it's the final episode without it being the final episode.
A sequel series wouldn't be out of the question, possibly with a new protagonist (since, now that the whole drama with Prospera and Ericht is resolved, Suletta doesn't really have a strong motivation to get inside a giant war robot and blow things up.) The problem is the Gundams themselves. Throughout most of this series we were led to believe that the problem of Gundams killing their pilots was resolved with Aerial and Suletta, but the last few episodes have revealed that Eri was just protecting Suletta from needing to use the dangeroud permet levels. If there's going to be a sequel series then it would stand to reason that it's going to be about someone piloting a Gundam, so they're going to need to find a reason why doing so won't kill them.
Well the final episode can just mean final episode of the season right?
As of Suletta's motivation, Eri is seemingly dead, no way Prospera takes that lying down, not to mention SAL is a threat to everyone Suletta cares about, that's plenty motivation I think to get in a gundam again, not to mention the whole situation on Earth.
